Geez, okay Les, we get it, there are snakes in the grass! If he said “Black Mamba” once, he must have said it a hundred or more times! Black Mamba this, Black Mamba that… Take for example the episode I watched today with Les on the African Plains. Survivorman is a lot more dramatic than Man vs Wild if you ask me. And at the end of the day when you’re lost in the woods, that’s what counts. The dude just doesn’t have enough lead in his pants! But I bet both could get out alive if they got lost in Montana hunting Elk. There’s no doubt he could not win an endurance or physical test against Bear Grylls. To me, Les Stroud is more like the average Joe. I also laugh at the way he says “Vitamins”.
I also don’t think it’s necessary to show him eating everything he comes across raw. I mean, I don’t think there was a real reason to strip off all his clothes and swim that Siberian river in the dead of Winter. It’s obvious if you watch the show the dude doesn’t get into all those situations on a 7 day outing. So what if he slept in a motel or at camp. Personally, I don’t know a “reality” type show out there that doesn’t have staged scenes and that includes “Deadliest Catch”. I do pick up some survival tips from his show although they are few and far between.īear has been criticized for staging some of the scenes in his show. He pushes it over and when it hits the other side it busted to pieces. Or some of the stuff he tries that doesn’t work, like building a bamboo ladder to get across that Ecuadoran river. Just watching his facial expressions when eating something disgusting sends me over the edge laughing my butt off. The main reason I watch Bear Grylls and Man vs Wild is for entertainment.
